Start with a smart-casual approach to race day fashion - think stylish dresses or nice shirts paired with trousers that are both chic and comfortable. And don’t forget to accessorise! Hats and fascinators are essential, adding a touch of flair that’s integral to the race day experience. Since you’ll be on your feet a lot, opt for footwear that’s both stylish and comfortable to keep you dancing through the day. Lastly, always check the weather beforehand and layer your outfit accordingly; a light jacket can be a lifesaver if the afternoon turns chilly.
